So you think they're just waiting until City gets enough points so they don't go negative when they get their deduction?

Re: Culinary Hot Takes
I have a ton of work to do, which is why I'm here posting the menu for where I'm eating tonight . Select your meal please. App, entree, dessert or any combo. I know I've been here once, but I don't remember what I ate. I'm going Brussel Sprouts, Steak Frites, and a Heavy Seas (I'm not a big fish/se...

Re: Old Timey Music for Howard and DC
I've been listening to Zappa's Hot Rats sessions box set. First Willie The Pimp as an instrumental is the fucking jam. Also, Shuggie Otis plays bass on Peaches en Regalia . Shuggie would later write Strawberry Letter 23 and the Brothers Johnson would make it a hit. Shuggie's albums are great. Here's...

Re: Thursday Music Discussion - Bands whose catalog you need to revisit
As for the idea, I think we need an active Swamper draft lottery and then we get to pick an artist/album for the Swamp. Then we have threads about the artists and how we feel about particular albums.

Re: Thursday Music Discussion - Bands whose catalog you need to revisit
The title hopefully says it all but whose entire catalog do you need to give a critical re-listen to for any number of reasons. I think I mentioned we did that at home with classic artists we'd never really listened to fully. Bowie became a staple, Neil Young I appreciate more, still don't get Dyla...

Black Betty was reworked by a band formed out of the core of the Lemon Pipers (of Green tambourine fame) and then reworked under the Ram Jam featuring only one member.
